About this deal
To facilitate the rental of Lidl’s limited-edition jumpers made from upcycled textiles, the supermarket has partnered with By Rotation, a peer-to-peer rental app akin to Airbnb but for designer fashion, which is championed by figures such as Dame Helen Mirren, Chrissy Rutherford and Abisola Omole. Lydia Bolton, the slow fashion designer who created the three Lidl jumpers, said: “Designing and producing these jumpers inspired by Christmas icons from secondhand textiles has been super fun and creative, but knowing they are going to be rented and reworn also supports my mission of valuing and reusing textiles.”
They fell out of popularity in the 1990s – largely regarded as “gag gits”. In Bridget Jones’s Diary, they epitomised embarrassment. Christmas jumpers – resplendent in their slew of tinsel, reindeer, sparkles and tassels – became popular in the UK during the 1980s when television presenters including Gyles Brandreth wore them on festive shows.
